We're now looking for our first full-time (CDI) People Operations Specialist to help us structure, support, and elevate our fast-growing team in Paris.

What Will You Do

You’ll play a critical role in evolving our core web platform — both frontend and backend — with a focus on performance, API design, and product integrations. This is a backend-heavy role with a full-stack flavor.

Backend Scalability & API Performance

• Refactor REST APIs to reduce over-fetching and inefficient database calls.
• Push async processing across high-latency parts of the stack.
• Introduce structured pagination, connection pooling, or background jobs
  
  

Database Modeling & Architecture

• Enhance scalability and maintainability.
• Debug, refactor, and optimize slow queries.
  
  

Integrations & Observability

• Hook up tools like PostHog, Mixpanel, and Sentry for better product & tech insight
• Build integrations with external APIs for internal tools or client-facing features
  
  

Who You Are

• Software engineer with 5 years' hands-on experience
• A strong Python developer with hands-on experience using SQLAlchemy in production environments
• Proficient with modern frontend frameworks like Vue.js (or similar single-page application frameworks)
• Comfortable building responsive, user-friendly interfaces with solid CSS skills — flexbox, CSS variables, and utility-first frameworks are second nature to you
• Highly experienced with PostgreSQL, with a strong grasp of relational database design
• A query performance expert — you understand indexing, execution plans, JOIN optimization, and caching at a deep level
• Security-conscious, with working knowledge of JWT, SSO, and OWASP top 10 best practices
• Skilled at designing scalable, well-structured REST APIs
• A collaborative engineer who values clean code, strong documentation, and working closely with teammates across disciplines
  
  

What we offer

• Work on meaningful problems with real-world impact in cybersecurity
• join a small, fast-moving team where you'll own your work
• Shape the future of a product already making noise in AI + Security circles
• Opportunity for equity and early ownership
• Remote-friendly, flexible work culture.

• Technical Interview
• Case Study
